The bonnet bulge is larger on a ph3 bonnet

Why would you need to I've that up? Surely you can fit xsara jets to a carbon bonnet? Have them in both my 306's and they are a godsend lol

So how much weight do these save?
I lifted one the other week and it felt so light it was as if the telescopic bonnet struts was going to shove the bonnet into the window LOL felt mega light, what kind of a price am I looking at?
I'd love to be able to make this myself, I'd end up with the whole car above the floor/chassis made from carbon fibre, would look immense a full carbon fibre 306

Covered in a suede like material. Probably fire retardant and/or water resistant at a guess. Seen it on a few cars, looks great but i would imagine pricey.
